Chapter 80: Night Attack
"Hyozhi, how's it going?"
As soon as Zhang Liao entered the city, he instantly put away his weakness in disguise, and came directly to the city wall to ask Fa Zheng.
Fa Zheng smiled slightly: "Huang Zu has already taken the bait, and he can act tonight." ”
Fa Zheng can probe people's temperament and emotions, and Huang Zu's heart at this time is full of disdain and anger. He didn't pay attention to Zhang Liao and the 20,000 troops in the city at all, but he was a little impatient about the strong and towering city walls of Nanchang.
Fazheng's strategy of night attack is not clever, basically a strategist can think of it, but not everyone understands people's temperament so clearly like Fazheng, and not all strategists are so courageous, leaving the city unguarded, and daring to go out of the city to be outnumbered.
It is precisely because Fa Zheng sees people's temperament so thoroughly that he admires his teacher, Tian Feng, so much. This is the most upright person Fa Zheng has ever seen, and the word Zhichen is simply tailor-made for Tian Feng, even if Shang Shi is better than Gan and the Western Han Dynasty is nothing more than that.
Although Fa Zheng can't be such a direct minister, and he doesn't want to become a direct minister, he admires Tian Feng as a direct minister. Every minister is a very precious treasure of the country.
"Wen Yuan, you will lead your 10,000 soldiers to attack at night on the third watch tonight, and you will definitely win!"
Zhang Liao nodded solemnly.
Fa Zheng looked at the Xu family's mansion not far from the city, and said secretly in his heart: I'm afraid it's not just us who are busy tonight!
That night, Zhang Liao led the army of one night according to Fazheng's instructions and secretly went out of the city gate and touched the vicinity of the camp of Huang Zu's army.
At the same time, the news that Zhang Liao led his army out of the city was also sent to Xu Gong at the same time.
Xu Gong's face darkened, listening to the information from his subordinates. I originally wanted to wait until tomorrow night to do it, but I didn't expect Zhang Liao to have the courage to take the initiative tonight.
Xu Gong realized that he had to make a move now, and if he waited any longer, it might be bad, so he immediately asked his subordinates to prepare to make a move, and took advantage of Zhang Liao's absence to make a quick move.
As a result, not long after Xu Gong's letter was sent, he suddenly found that there were murderous sounds around him.
Xu Gong hurriedly ran out of the door, and saw the scene of his family and servants being slaughtered by arrows flying in all directions.
The surrounding environment was so dark that you couldn't even see who the enemy was, and the sky was completely covered with dark clouds at some point, and even the moon was out of sight.
Xu Gong suddenly realized that this dark cloud was deliberately done by someone, and hurriedly urged his spiritual power to drive away the dark cloud, but there was no way, and the dark cloud in the air still naughtily refused to leave.
Xu Gong only felt a pain in his mind, and a hint of red appeared at the corner of his mouth. Sitting weakly on the ground, Xu Gong clenched his hands, bloodshot eyes appeared, glared into the distance, and roared word by word: "Law!" Filial piety! Straight! ”
As if hearing Xu Gong's roar, Fa Zheng stood at the door of Xu Gong's mansion, smiling as he watched the soldiers around him keep shooting at Xu's mansion, and said softly: "Xu Derong, thank you!" ”
At the same time, after the servants sent by Xu Gong to deliver the news arrived at their respective destinations, a group of soldiers also appeared around the location, and after shooting the servants with an arrow, they did not hesitate to directly surround the destination and shoot inward continuously.
This was destined to be an unquiet night, and countless screams resounded throughout Nanchang City. All the people and families closed their doors and windows one after another, for fear that they would be treated as a chaotic party if they were not careful.
Fa Zheng listened to the incessant screams, smelled the bloody breath that filled the air, and muttered in his heart: Once you will succeed, Wen Yuan, it's up to you next!
Zhang Liao looked at the dark clouds covering the entire sky at this time, and suddenly understood that the time had come, pulled out the double knives on his waist, raised them upward, and struck them hard.
"Kill!"
As soon as Zhang Liao's shout came out, the soldiers under his command also clenched their long knives and raised their heads, shouting: "Kill!" Then followed Zhang Liao and rushed towards Huang Zu's camp.
Zhang Liao acted as an arrow, and the five thousand soldiers under his command rushed up like a pack of wolves. The soldiers in charge of patrolling in the Huangzu camp couldn't resist at all, and they were broken through almost instantly, killing and wounding all over the place.
Zhang Liao took advantage of the situation to enter the camp, smashed the fire, and slaughtered on a large scale.
After three days of rapid marching, the soldiers under Huang Zu were already exhausted, and they were sleeping heavily at this time. Suddenly, I heard the earth-shattering sound of killing, and some of them didn't even have time to put on their armor, so they ran out directly to see what the situation was.
As a result, Zhang Liao led 5,000 soldiers to rush in and kill the enemy everywhere. Everywhere there were scenes of soldiers fighting, and these soldiers were also panicked, and they rushed out when they raised their knives, and killed those who attacked them.
At this time, the surrounding environment was dark, and these soldiers could only barely see the figures of the people around them by relying on the surrounding fires, and they couldn't tell who was who at all, and they could only kill people when they saw them coming up.
And Zhang Liao's soldiers are all tied to bells, and they are ringing extremely clearly at all times, so they can distinguish each other whether they are friendly or not. This is also the idea that Fa Zheng came up with.
Zhang Liao's talent was originally at a disadvantage, and the combat power of the soldiers under his command would be greatly improved. Five thousand against sixty thousand, the soldiers under his command are now at least twice as powerful as before.
In addition, when he entered this night when he couldn't see his fingers, Huang Zu's camp was bombed in an instant.
Huang Zu realized that something was wrong when he heard the sound of killing, and hurriedly put on his armor, picked up his weapons and walked out of the camp, only to find that his soldiers had already fought in a mess.
Looking at the pitch-black sky, Huang Zu immediately realized what the situation was, and hurriedly called his entourage military division and asked him to use his spiritual power to disperse the dark clouds in the sky.
Because Fa Zheng was indeed too far away from here at this time, even if his spiritual strength was strong, it would be difficult to suppress the enemy who was hundreds of miles away. The marching division quickly broke through the dark clouds in the sky, and the bright moonlight shone again.
At this time, Huang Zu's soldiers had already been killed and injured by Zhang Liao's sneak attack and cannibalism. However, there are still nearly 40,000 soldiers left, and Huang Zu is also a famous general, so he quickly stabilized his mind, pointed his long knife in the direction of Zhang Liao, and shouted loudly: "The whole army is stable!" Don't be afraid, the enemy is not numerous, kill them all! ”
After speaking, he led his pro-military battalion and killed Zhang Liao. After all, the soldiers under Huang Zu's command were all elites, although they panicked at first, but under Huang Zu's roar, he instantly came back to his senses and turned to kill Zhang Liao's troops.
And Zhang Liao had known for a long time that this would happen. Just as the moonlight appeared, there was a continuous roar behind him, as if countless reinforcements were coming.
Zhang Liao shouted: "Hold on, reinforcements are coming!" Don't let any of them go, kill me! ”
In fact, it was the remaining 5,000 people brought by Zhang Liao who came to support, but all of them were holding four torches and rushing towards Huang Zu's camp.
However, because it was night at this time, even though the moonlight was bright, Huang Zu's soldiers could only see countless torches and figures in the distance, as if tens of thousands of troops were killing them.
The morale of the army, which had been stabilized, was once again dissipated, and many soldiers secretly ran towards the rear.
Even Huang Zu was a little stunned in his heart, but at this time, the arrow had to be sent on the string, and if he retreated, he would die. Huang Zu stared closely at Zhang Liao, who was leading the charge, this was their leader! As long as you kill him, you still have a chance to turn the tables!
Huang Zu roared wildly, and led his own soldiers and subordinates to take the lead in killing Zhang Liao, a general with martial arts in his heart.
Zhang Liao looked at Huang Zu who was rushing towards him, and his heart was ecstatic! The thief captured the king first, and the other party actually sent it to the door himself! As long as you kill Huang Zu, you will win this battle.
Without saying a word, he blessed the cloud qi of the army behind him on his twin swords, and his internal qi surged, and he used all his strength to swing a cross slash at Huang Zu.
Suddenly, two blades of more than ten zhang long flew towards Huang Zu at a speed that was indistinguishable to the naked eye, leaving two deep cracks on the land they passed along the way!
Huang Zu looked at this powerful sword, his pupils shrank, and he hurriedly attracted the cloud qi of the army under his command to block it in front of him.
